Mobile Phones

Government guidance now sets out much stronger expectations for schools to create fully phone‑free environments.

From September 2026, smartphones will be banned on site for students in Years 7, 8 and 9. We have been supporting the Smartphone Free Childhood initiative and would encourage parents and carers to explore this approach and its benefits.  

We understand that some parents may still wish their children to have a device in order to contact them before or after school. If a device is brought into school, it must not have access to the internet or social media.

A letter sent out to parents/carers regarding our Mobile Phone Policy change can be found HERE

The document attached lists some device options that parents may want to consider.
